Laser Safety
The Laser Safety Plan applies to all departments, laboratories, and individuals using, possessing, or storing Class 3B or 4 lasers or laser systems. This includes lower class lasers and laser systems that produce an output power that qualifies as a Class 3B or 4 laser system (e.g. a focused Class 3R laser). The Laser Safety Plan also applies to Class 1 systems with embedded Class 3B or 4 lasers if they are to be used, aligned, serviced, or otherwise operated with interlocks defeated. The Laser Safety Plan applies to all laser use at the main ±«ÓãÖ±²¥ campus, South Campus, Moss Landing Marine Lab, and any affiliated satellite facilities.
